Utility is passing an SBOM with an invalid iri-reference

Unfortunately I cannot give the SBOM, but it would be pretty easy to create.

I had an SBOM that would not load into Dependency Track with a Schema Validation error. Using the latest version of this tool I ran the validation against it and this is the output:

Welcome to the sbom-utility! Version `v0.17.0` (sbom-utility) (darwin/amd64)

Short version of several hours of work is I tracked it to an entry. The entry in error is as follows:

    {
      "type": "library",
      "bom-ref": "pkg:pypi/example@21.12",
      "supplier": {
        "url": [
          "Not Found"
        ]
      },
      "author": "UNKNOWN",
      "name": "example",
      "version": "21.12",
      "description": "UNKNOWN",
      "licenses": [
        {
          "license": {
            "id": "Apache-2.0"
          }
        }
      ],
      "copyright": "No copyright found",
      "purl": "pkg:pypi/example@21.12",
      "properties": [
        {
          "name": "Relationship Completeness",
          "value": "Unknown"
        }
      ]
    },

This is the fixed one:

    {
      "type": "library",
      "bom-ref": "pkg:pypi/example@21.12",
      "supplier": {
        "url": [
          ""
        ]
      },
      "author": "UNKNOWN",
      "name": "example",
      "version": "21.12",
      "description": "UNKNOWN",
      "licenses": [
        {
          "license": {
            "id": "Apache-2.0"
          }
        }
      ],
      "copyright": "No copyright found",
      "purl": "pkg:pypi/example@21.12",
      "properties": [
        {
          "name": "Relationship Completeness",
          "value": "Unknown"
        }
      ]
    },

The difference is in this section:

      "supplier": {
        "url": [
          "Not Found"
        ]
      },

Looking at the spec https://cyclonedx.org/docs/1.5/json/#components_items_supplier_url it clearly states that it needs to be a URL. (Or several of them)

Could the validation tool please be updated to validate this field properly. Thanks.
